We had a problem with our TL12R2 a few months ago and every time it would have its issue it would shut off. My guys would always turn the key off and try to restart it. That would clear all the codes every time. Finally it did it and they didn’t touch the key. Once in the display we pulled the codes. Ended up being a heat sensor in the DPF. They came out and put a new sensor in and it’s been good to go. Had it for a year now and 1,300 hrs and it’s been great. Getting another TL12R2 next month once it comes in. They are almost impossible to get right now, no inventory until October.
There was an article on an air study from Southern California about two years ago regarding the def in the new diesels. The def particles were heavier than oxygen so they settled back down to the earth for us to breathe in. I’m with you Sam. The generation of diesels before def were almost as clean as most gas motors
There are 2 things that will decrease DPF soot loading, first is using a Fuel Borne Catalyst (Better Diesel FBC brand) more complete combustion, lowers the temperature and duration necessary for regen and the second is Delo 600 ADF a new oil formulated without metallic additives which reduces sulfated ash by 60 percent, from crankcase oil mist, which small amount does get combusted.
Just for your information "Stage" classifications are European off-highway regulations and "tier" is US off-highway. Since US does not have current regs as stringent as Europe (probably coming with current administration) many manufactures developed their Stage 5 engines and also certified them to Tier 4 Final so they can sell the same engine in multiple countries.
My regulations on emissions in rural Maine USA are more stringent than a friends in Yorkshire UK. He was able to buy a machine with more power exactly equal to my wife’s 2013 model. The machine was unavailable to me in 2019 he bought one new the same year in UK.
@@troytreeguy are you referring to an off-highway equipment vs a truck? Off-highway always lags behind on-highway, usually 6-10 years. Stage 5 drove the need for DPF on everything, because of this engines were "made dirtier" and cleaned up on backside with aftertreatment. This in turn allows engine to be "pushed" more. At Tier 4F for example Cummins does not have a DPF for anything under 400hp. The engine is cleaned through more controlled engine parameters thus making the aftertreatment "work less" and avoid DPF.
Ours did the same. They said it was the dpf header. The machine was several hundred hours out of warranty, we were working in North Carolina, bought the machine back home in GA, we took it to the local dealership, they fixed it under warranty, and the repair parts were on back order, they gave us a rental machine for 2½ months for free!!!! That's service.
VB&S, I like the show. Showing the good, the bad, and the annoying. I will say, I know I can’t get away from the inevitable and having to use def. But every time I fire up the 2002 F250 with the 7.3L, I truly enjoy walking past the Def aisle in the Home Depot.
Thank you sharing so much i formation. Because of your channel and the tine Jim from Global spent with me at the logging conference. I will be purchasing a TL12!
This came is common on this skidsteer the def fluid leaks down the wiring harness into the def control module. I’m working on one right now where injector #4 isn’t getting power and the dealership is going to pay me to replace wiring harness and def control module.
Common problem I had the same issue with the def dosing valve on my tl12v2 at 238hrs. Mine also covered under warranty thankfully because it's a 1400$ part
Thanks for your video and channel - love it! Just got an older CTL myself and one of my fears is what do you do when a tracked machine breaks down out in the field given you can't just roll these things? In other words, how did you recover this and get it to the dealer? Don't wish bad luck on anyone but would love to see a video of that if the Takeuchi should ever have another hiccup.
I love your videos man, I’m think I’m local to you I just bought myself a 2017 TL12v2 that has a bad turbo, already talked to Oscar down at Global Machinery, he seems to be a really nice guy, hopefully I’ll get it going in the next couple of weeks to start using it on my property in Auburn.
Take zip ties and secure the metal lid covering the rear intake cover up. Let it idle and regen. If it has AC, run the machine at full throttle and cycle the AC on and off for about 3-4 mins. It will clear the code!
i have a 2017 tl12v2 and have been going through this same issue, update and new hardware as well, and the warranty on the def system started overwith a new 5 year warranty from tak... the sensors seem to go out alot but tak admitted they had a bad run of sensorsand hopefully the one i am haveing replaced today will be the last one for a while
Trip through wyoming my ass. Lol gotta love norcal. I hate being in exile in reno, but i do love me some standard capacity 30rd mags, that you can reload with just the push of a button. Sorry the libs are still im charge. For now...
The EPA bullshit is killing anything Diesel Period! It’s one big Scam if you ask me ! I just bought a new 2021 F-350 7.3 Big Block Godzilla with 4.30 gears . Will gooseneck 20K with ease. I bought it because I know I’ll have less issues with it compared at any modern Diesel engine. I keep my stuff long after warranty & tow 15K or less so to me it’s the better choice by far.
i bought the same 2022.. how is yours holding up?? mine has only 9k miles no issues so far.. they are rated around 24k tow capacity on 5th wheel which is more than most older 2012ish diesels!

A PERFECT example of why I choose to NOT get a new machine with all the DEF crap. I found a 'like new' high flow TL250 so as to NOT have the DEF problems.
Seems you won't have issues on most newer equipment on mechanics,its all expensive emmision controls that are the biggest headaches.makes buying a low hr used machine scary.
Hi wondering is def a clear liquid which when dry looks like a crystal deposit ? if yes in the UK/Europe, its called ad-blue which is basically pig piss .... it is sprayed into the exhaust system after the cat and is meant to stick to any particulates coming out of the tail pipe and then stick to the road ,now figure me this, this is meant to keep harmful particulates out of the air ?? !!!!! so why is it plumbed into vehicles with exhaust systems that direct exhaust gases up into the air ,such as stacks on trucks,tractors,tippers off road/highway vehicles etc . Plus its not cheap,cheaper than a gallon of diesel but still adds a lot to the cost of running anything bigger than your pick-up,and yes it stinks and will not do you any good if you breath it in as it sticks to the road so will stick to the insides of your nose/windpipe/lungs .good A !
DEF or adblue is a mixture of urea and what that when coupled with high temperatures in the exhaust creates a chemical reaction to reduce the Nox emissions (nitrogen oxides) coming out the tail pipe ... which creates nitrogen and water as a byproduct. If you smell anything coming from the exhaust there is a failure somewhere
Keep in mind. Federal EPA law requires any DEF or emission issues be repaired at no charge for 5 years at no cost to the owner. Unless they find contaminated DEF or trash in the DEF tank. I have experienced serious DEF issue. Everything associated with the DEF system required replacement. Would have cost about $ 12,000 to repair. Failure repaired at no cost to us. Machine was out of warranty. Considered trading. Dealer informed me of this law and suggested that we wait until the 59th month.
dealer support on the big island is horrible, $88,000 + TL12V2 HIGH FLOW was delivered with out 2ed Auxiliary Circuit, witch is in our contract, after going back and forth, our dealer says Takeuchi no longer has a factory install 2ed Auxiliary circuit, ?? and has a field install option, at her dealership, TAKEUCHI has cut off communication with us completely, finding out the price difference between with 2ed Auxiliary and without would help, we are stuck, i hate attorneys, any suggestions

It looks like traler is 14k a else could be wrong but what kind of trailer is it for machine to fit between wheel wells and. Ya looks like you got apprx 16-17k on trailer so wondering what axles you had running. Machine mush be 12,000+ lbs, mulcher 2-3000lbs and attachment on front of trailer. Not knocking you at all I know you know your shit been watching your videos for awhile. Thanks any info would be great
So how did you get it on the trailer? New equipment scares me, when there is no dealer for 400km and 10 years old sorry we don't support that any moor.
DO I SEE A ETTERA CEMENT SKID STEER MIXER ? 16 CU , I HAVE ONE STILL IN CRATE , FROM SKID STEER SOLUTIONS WILLING TO SELL AT A LOSS , @$6,000, FROM TRENT AT SKID STEER SOL
There are only a few suppliers, most are just rebrands. Main thing to look for is how it's stored. Want it from some place with good turn over and out of UV. ie don't buy it when it is sitting at the front window of auto zone for 6 months. It will break down and doesn't like heat.
The problem seen with the Walmart Supertech is expired fluid and/or unsealed containers. There's also been reports of people using Supertech and it ended up being water. Its assumed someone bought a jug, used it, refilled with water and returned it. Some systems are more sensitive to expired fluids like GM & Fords. I use the Peak in a sealed box so you know it wasn't tampered with. For the extra 4 or 5 dollars the security is worth it.
When they start putting Def on private jets , then I'll believe its helping the environment
Excellent statement. I will get with congress and plane should 100% be on Def to help the green world as this is their goal
That’s why dealer support is so crucial. Just like you explain that’s the most important thing when choosing a color machine!

TL12. You can always make and save money, but you’ll never make more time. Do feel ok about the down time of the equipment.
I’ve got 783000 on my isx. The DPF filter replaced 1 time. No other problems.
I just picked up a Wolverine concrete mixer for my skid steer. I see yours came with a hose, I did not get the hose.
New to the channel, great videos by the way. What brand front bumper is that on your Ram?
